"Thought to be Canberra's Leisure Capital"

Mitchell is located 7 kms north north east of Melbourne. It is one of two suburbs where brothels are allowed. It also has other adult entertainment businesses including a strip club. A common misconception amongst Canberra residents is that it also is the home to the Exhibition Park known as Canberra EPIC and the Thoroughbred Park which is the Canberra Racecourse. These are actually located in the adjacent suburb of Lyneham.
